Troy Spring State Park

This 70-foot deep, first magnitude spring offers opportunities for swimming, snorkeling, and scuba diving.

Nestled in the shallow water of the spring run are the remains of the Civil War-era steamboat Madison, which was scuttled in 1863 to keep it from being captured.

A hidden gem in north-central Florida, Troy Spring State Park provides restrooms, an accessible walkway, picnic tables and a nature trail.

Only open-water scuba diving is permitted and divers must be certified. Solo diving is not allowed.
